Chapter 1378: The couple sees each other 2

Young Master Han looked at the two of them coldly, "Go and accept your punishment."

"Yes!"

The two bowed and retreated.

Han Yong asked, "Who is so capable to have shaken off all your men?"

The young master of the Han Family replied indifferently, "A student from a lower country, with some skills, even defeated Cheche. I want to see if there is anyone behind him giving orders."

"Oh? So it was a person from a lower country who injured Cheche." Han Yong was both annoyed and amused, "Bullying the legitimate son of the Han Family, isn’t that tantamount to courting death? There are only a few in Shengdu who have the guts to do that, it’s either the Mu Family or the Nangong Family."

The Mu Family was an old grudge, the Nangong Family for the struggle for military power.

The young master of the Han Family looked toward the flowers in the garden and said with focused eyes, "He indeed is a schoolmate of Mu Qingchen, but Mu Qingchen wouldn’t do this. If Mu Qingchen has an issue, he would come at me directly, not harm Cheche."

Han Yong stroked his chin, pondering, "Then there’s only the Nangong Family left."

The young master of the Han Family’s brows furrowed slightly, "The Nangong Family?"

Han Yong nodded, speaking frankly, "Yes, the Nangong Family has always wanted our Hei Fengqi, and we have been coveting their military power. A clash was inevitable."

The young master of the Han Family pondered for a moment, "Why do I feel that it’s not the Nangong Family either?"

Han Yong said, "Apart from the Nangong Family, who else would take on the Han Family? The Wang Family? They don’t have such intentions."

As he spoke, seeing that his nephew was still deep in thought, he chuckled lightly, "You don’t think he has the courage to challenge the Han Family by himself, do you? Let alone he is just a person from a lower country, even a Young Master from a noble family in Shang Country would not have the power to contend with the entire Han Family on his own, unless he was mad."

"Moreover, don’t you find it odd that several students from Zhan Country have suddenly arrived? Our Academy in Yan Country has never had students from Zhan Country." _{freёwebnoѵel.com}

The young master of the Han Family furrowed his brows tightly, "You mean they were brought here by the Nangong Family from the start?"

Han Yong continued, "Do you remember the incident when General Nangong’s arm was severed by bandits?"

The young master of the Han Family said, "I remember."

Han Yong sneered, "General Nangong wasn’t returning home for ancestral worship but went secretly to Zhan Country. His arm wasn’t injured by bandits at all. I’m not clear on what exactly happened, but not long after he returned to Shengdu, those people from Zhan Country arrived; do you think that’s a coincidence?"

Two days later, Gu Jiao made a trip to the residence of Lord Yun Shan. The Little Princess was still afraid of mounting a horse, and was unceremoniously pulled onto the horse by Gu Jiao, completing the riding lesson amidst a torrent of tears.

"For the next few days... Uh! You don’t have to... Uh!"

The Little Princess cried so hard she hiccupped, and even after dismounting the horse, although she stopped crying, the hiccups didn’t cease.

"Take your time," Gu Jiao said.

"I am taking my... Uh!" The Little Princess hiccupped again, thinking it best to make it short and sweet in her current state, "I can’t take lessons... Uh! My king uncle is... Uh! Celebrating his birthday... Uh! My father is not... Uh! Here... Uh! I must... Uh! Go on his behalf... Uh!"

Actually, there was still some time before her Imperial Uncle’s birthday celebration, but she needed to move into the palace early, so she temporarily couldn’t attend the riding lessons.

This suited Gu Jiao just fine because she was getting ready for the upcoming Cuju game and probably wouldn’t have time to teach her anyway.

"Then we’ll resume the riding lessons after the Little Princess is done with her engagements."

"Deal."

The Little Princess immediately covered her mouth.
